Should take you around 1.5 hours to do all 4. They're easy and you'll be pissed that you didnt do it sooner.

I speak from experience...I installed the fronts and then got lazy. Once I got around to installing the rears, I kicked myself for waiting so long.

Guess you didn't notice I scarfed them up while I was there working on your stereo......

JK! You should have time to get them done now though. I expect to see a lot of little projects finished in the next few weeks.....

Bringing this back from the dead....GrafxWerks wants $1050 for a full set of Illuminated M5 Sills on their website. Am I reading that right? Anywhere else to get them cheaper?
